Ok since many of you are despondently watching the clock and waiting for the morrow I thought maybe another subject to distract your thoughts might help.

That Wir Lieben Autos mob are off and going. So who is next cab off the rank. This time round I've heard nothing, nada. Seems our ship is mighty tight these days with hardly a skerrick of juicy rumour able to find its way out....... or can it ?

Melbourne ( the MFC ) has been thrown a mighty big life buoy. Seriously backed in by the league itself we are just about going to land a whole school of fish. ( sorry there's that other subject ...dang :rolleyes: ) The club will get a lot of attention for the rest of this and a lot of next year at least.

Any company seeking bang for buck would be hard pressed to look past us.

who will it be ?

anyone heard anything ?

Yes. Maybe there will be an announcement tonight at the B&F?

I don't think I can stomach another purely speculative thread.

I think I will just wait for the official signing. (hopefully sooner rather than later)

I heard our new sponsor is the AFL to the tune of 2.7 mill. A one year deal.

Paid in advance.

I think the Daily Planet Gentlemen's Club Kittens & Dan Murphy should jump on board.

There is going to be a lot of celebrating going on from tomorrow onwards.

Hopefully it continues infinitum...13,14,15.....16....

Apparently Yellow Pages are about to embark on a new ad campaign, reviving the catch phrase; "not happy Jan" (perhaps substitute; not happy Jack"). Seems appropriate to me.

Gotta love any thread with the tag "have no idea".

Most accurate tag on Demonland ever.

youd have preferred ?

The thread is speculative for it has to be otherwise it would be announcing something and that would be definitive.

Glad to see you offered to add quality to the subject . Some, myself included , have an interest in who might be prepared to put their money down.

Given the flurry of activity and the occasion of tonight i thought it worthy of discussion .

Often some hear whispers or indeed have inroads . That i have neither on this occasion is irrelevant to the subject.

Do you know anything ?

Didn't some one say Range Rover was a big chance?

I also heard Falls Creak and Mount Hotham are making a strong bid for shorts sponsorship.

people laugh at the notion of LR. but they are ramping up their pr and the membership of the MFC isn't such a bad place to sell your wares.

Given their line up of models its not such a daft idea. (funny though )

Sargent Shultz style - I know nothing.

I just thought it was a funny tag, given a lot of the posts recently have been Judd's Grandma-esque.

Was not meant as a personal jab but rather a jab at our collective habit for speculation.

edit - spelling

I heard Range Rover and a Singapore campaign - whether it's Singapore Airlines or a tourism campaign I don't know. Also Priceline.

Range Rover would be good, being a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Motors, India, it'd give us a chance to make a potentially lucrative sub-continental connection.

Were we not the medias b-arch this year - especially the first 6 months of it? Lots of publicity? Lots of "bang for buck"?

Did a lot of good for Opel.

Opel from my learnings had a very squirrelly idea ( or none ) re this market. You dont dabbled toes for 2 years and expect miracles. Some GMH mates were wondering from day 1., thought them daft.

It wasnt us...lol....definitely them !!

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    TRAINING: Monday 13th January 2025

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti
